STEUBENvILLE, o., January San
drew G.. Haines, of Haines Bros, New
York, who are extensively interested in
street and short railways, was in the city
Thursday, and after looking over the
ground, was convinced that line of street
cars would pay in Steubenville, and e1-
pressed the willingness of his company TO
build and operate line if the rights of
way and other necessary encouragement
was given. 1t is proposed that the line
shall run from Riverside blast furnace to
Mingo junction, following the course of
Franklin avenue Fourth street, Market
street, Third street and the county road
between Steubenville and Mingo A meet
ing of the Board of Improvement was held
Friday night to take action on the matter
If Haines Brothers are willing to come here
and build street railway, taking the risk
of it proving failure, no Obje ton should
certainly be made by any one, and instead
of obstacles being thrown in the way every
encouragement possible should be given.
